    help - Setting up FTP with SSH.

    Hi, I'm trying to set up my new server and I'm having problems setting up de FTP users... I'm a proggy not a sys admin

    I did every thing they say here, but when I try to connect I get the 530 login incorrect... What have I done wrong ?

    To change or set the FTP password : (username = FTP username)
    1. Log into your server through SSH
    2. Issue the following command : passwd username

    To create a new FTP account : (/home/www/domain.com = path to data)
    1. Log into your server through ssh
    2. Issue : /usr/sbin/adduser -d /home/www/domain.com -s /bin/false username

    To create a new web domain : (domain.com = new domain name)
    1. Log into your server through ssh
    2. Issue the following command : mkdir /home/www/domain.com
    3. Issue the following command : chmod 755 /home/www/domain.com
    4. Create the new FTP account
    5. Set the new FTP account password
    6. Create the www.domain.com alias to domain.com

    Directory and user are created ... but simply don't work
    I have nothing to advertise ... yet.
Working...
